3. VULNERABILITY DESCRIPTION

The code provides access to the file specified after the READ DATASET
statement. The variable transmitted to the input of the statement is
entered in it by user input. Thus, the user can access the files
stored on the operating system. This vulnerability is called a
Directory Traversal.

The attack is possible if the application does not check the user data
and does not delete special characters used for a directory traversal
attack from the variable, in which the filename is passed. As a
result, an attacker can read data from all files, to which the
application has access.

To discover this vulnerability, data flow analysis and other unique
techniques are used.

Filename used in statement READ DATASET (line 428) is entered in this
statement by user input. User can pass to input arbitrary filepath,
for example /etc/passwd. As a result of execution of the
BUPA_BIP_FILE_IMPORT program, data from /etc/passwd will be written in
P_FLEN variable in hex format.


Vulnerable code
